TACHYMETER (for models with tachymeter scale on the dial)
To measure the hourly average speed of a vehicle
Use the stopwatch to determine how many seconds it takes to go 1 km or 1 mile. Tachymeter scale indicated by STOPWATCH second hand gives the average speed per hour.
STOPWATCH second hand: 40 seconds

Tachymeter scale: 90

90 (tachymeter scale figure) x 1 (km or mile) = 90 km/h or mph
* Tachymeter scale can be used only when the time required is less than 60 seconds.
Ex. 2: If the measuring distance is extended to 2 km or miles or shortened to 0.5 km or miles and STOPWATCH second hand indicates 90 on tachymeter scale:
90 (tachymeter scale figure) x 2 (km or mile) = 180 km/h or mph 90 (tachymeter scale figure) x 0.5 (km or mile) = 45 km/h or mph
To measure the hourly rate of operation
Use the stopwatch to measure the time required to complete 1 job. Tachymeter scale indicated by STOPWATCH second hand gives the average number of jobs accomplished per hour.

Tachymeter scale: 180

Ex. 2: If 15 jobs are completed in 20 seconds:
180 (tachymeter scale figure) x 15 jobs = 2700 jobs/hour
ADJUSTING THE HAND POSITION
q If STOPWATCH hands will not return to the 12 oclock position when the stopwatch is reset or when the battery is replaced with a new one, follow the procedure below.
Pull out to second click. Press repeatedly to reset STOPWATCH minute hand to the 12 oclock position. Press repeatedly to reset STOPWATCH second hand to the 12 oclock position. Push back in to normal position.

NOTE Before using the watch again, be sure to adjust the position of STOPWATCH hands and set the main time and alarm.

BATTERY LIFE INDICATOR

q When the battery nears its end, the small second hand moves at two-second intervals instead of normal one-second intervals to indicate that the battery needs to be replaced with a new one. * If the alarm is used while the second hand is moving at two-second intervals, the watch may stop operating. Therefore, if you see the second hand moving at two-second intervals, replace the battery with a new one as soon as possible.

BATTERY CHANGE

The miniature battery which powers your watch should last approximately 2 years. However, because the battery is inserted at the factory to check the function and performance of the watch, its actual life once in your possession may be less than the specified period. When the battery expires, be sure to replace it as soon as possible to prevent any malfunction. For battery replacement, we recommend that you contact an AUTHORIZED SEIKO DEALER and request SEIKO SR927W battery.

CAUTION

Do not remove the battery from the watch. If it is necessary to take out the battery, keep it out of the reach of children. If a child swallows it, consult a doctor immediately. 18

bar WR
* Pressure in bar is a test pressure and should not be considered as corresponding to actual diving depth since swimming movement tends to increase the pressure at a given depth. Care should also be taken on diving into water. ** We recommend that you wear a SEIKO Divers Watch for scuba diving.
When taking a shower with the water resistant 5 bar watch, or taking a bath with the water resistant 10, 15 or 20 bar watch, be sure to observe the following: * Do not operate the crowns or push the buttons when the watch is wet with soapy water or shampoo. * If the watch is left in warm water, a slight time loss or gain may be caused. This condition, however, will be corrected when the watch returns to normal temperature.

s TEMPERATURES

Your watch works with stable +60C accuracy within a temperature -10C range of 5C and 35C (41F and 95F). Temperatures over 60C (140F) may cause battery leakage or shorten the battery life. Do not leave your watch in very low temperatures below 10C (+14F) for a long time since the cold may cause a slight time loss or gain. However, the above conditions will be corrected when the watch returns to normal temperature.

s MAGNETISM

Your watch will be adversely affected by strong magnetism. Keep it away from close contact with magnetic objects.
s CARE OF CASE AND BRACELET
To prevent possible rusting of the case and bracelet caused by dust, moisture and perspiration, wipe them periodically with a soft dry cloth.

s SHOCKS & VIBRATION

Light activities will not affect your watch, but be careful not to drop your watch or hit it against hard surfaces, as this may cause damage.

s PERIODIC CHECK

It is recommended that the watch be checked once every 2 to 3 years. Have your watch checked by an AUTHORIZED SEIKO DEALER or SERVICE CENTER to ensure that the case, crowns, buttons, gasket and crystal seal remain intact.

2-3 Years

s CHEMICALS
Be careful not to expose the watch to solvents (e.g., alcohol and gasoline), mercury (i.e., from a broken thermometer), cosmetic spray, detergents, adhesives or paints. Otherwise, the case, bracelet, etc. may become discolored, deteriorated or damaged.

s PRECAUTION REGARDING CASE BACK PROTECTIVE FILM
If your watch has a protective film and/or a sticker on the case back, be sure to peel them off before using your watch. Otherwise, perspiration getting in under them may rust the case back.
